I think it looks awesome. Love the RPG elements they've added.

Surely the remaster won't cost more than just a regular release?

oh i wouldn't think so. i was more hoping that it wouldn't even cost as much as a regular release. overpriced in this sense means paying $79.99 for a 5 year old game with a new coat of paint.

Yeah, I figure it will be a lower cost release.

I'm going to try MyLeague now. At first I enjoyed all the bs in the GM mode but it gets exhausting fast.

Yeah, MyLeague is more of a traditional Franchise mode.

I'm assuming that once I complete MyCareer, I'll be able to import my character in MyLeague?

Also, will my player get any better without me paying for skills points? Or do I have to make a bunch of stupid IAPs to see him grow?

Nope, your MyCareer player can only be used in the Park and My Career.

You can earn badges through gameplay but the only way to increase your player's attributes is by earning more VC (through gameplay or in other modes). It is kind of a grind.

I'm already sick of hearing about fucking Skyrim again. Fuck everything Bethesda. They are a garbage developer.

Their gameplay is antiquated and often outright broken. They are terrible.

Guys, I think I'm ready to admit that Fallout 4 sucks. It's a well-rendered, enormous world filled with excruciating boredom and tedious item management. And the dialogue is awful, particularly with the Brotherhood of Steel. Can't believe so many people have flipped for this game.
